Fall colors came out. I liked the script behind the leaves. I liked the dark behind the leaves. I agree with Ingrid, I would not lighten up the dark area too much. I think that the piece is a wonderful, master piece to share and talk about for years to come. Good Luck, and God Bless you. Ellen Lou Severs Artist and Author of A Whisper Through Life. Hello Terry,

I would benefit and I am sure other watercolorists would as well. Terry,

Beautiful and inspiring. How about a tutorial showing us your method and techniques?

I would benefit and I am sure other watercolorists would as well.

Lovely clean colors are prominent and the interesting textures help the eye to travel throughout your painting. I would like to comment on the use of color. As I squint down at this piece, I am torn between the left side with the dark accents behind those lovely leaf shapes, and then those exciting bright violet and red/orange shapes hugging the right side of the painting. For me the focal area is torn between the two areas. Maybe have those very bright areas so close to the right side of the painting become a little less pronounced. This could be accomplished with a very thin complementary wash over those areas. The color would still be there....it just won't be as bright and therefore not detract from the focal area with the leaves. This is a very energetic and lovely creation! Thanks for sharing with all of us! Happy creating! Ingrid ;-) Hi Terry,
